White Eggs In Lawn?!

Hi all, I was strimming a clients' back lawn the other day (we let some areas grow naturally) and I disturbed a frog (I think) and close by a 'nest' of garden pea sized white eggs - any ideas?

Amphibians, (frogs), lay eggs in water

First thought was slugs/snails. Do you have a photo?
Hi Nutcutlet, yes I know, however I disturbed one inches from this 'nest'. It may just have been a coincidence, there's no pond in the garden or either neighbours. I have photo's but I can't seem to upload them.... annoying! I'll keep trying....
Hello Kitty (couldn't resist it sorry!)
Yes, I have 2 photo's but can't seem to upload them. I press the camera icon, then choose Documents, I go to my gallery, choose the images and it brings me back here again - seemingly without uploading the pics
It could be the size of the photo, most people suggest reducing them. I haven't a clue how to do it though
it probably is the photo size as Kitty says. They just don't upload if too large but nothing come up to tell you why.
I reduce mine to 30%

Hello Thornton,
Were they anything like these?
If so you probably disturbed a frog or toad in the middle of his lunch
As has been said, try reducing the size of your pics, and be patient, they sometimes take a little while to upload.
